Day 790:<\/p>\n

On my way to the mountain today I was attacked by a skeleton (normal) riding armor (normal) shooting arrows at me (normal) FROM THE BACK OF A SKELETON HORSE (NOT NORMAL).<\/p>\n

And I’m pretty sure it’s the same skeleton horse that’s been saying hello to me in the morning!<\/p>\n

I WAS FURIOUS. WHICH WAS CONFUSING.<\/p>\n

It’s not like it was my horse. I’m not even a huge fan of horses, though as a kid I was because what kid wasn’t? Pony rides were\u00a0exotic<\/em>.<\/p>\n

But that skeleton had no right to ride that horse!<\/p>\n

Or did it? Maybe it brought the horse in the first place? Maybe mounted skeletons were a normal thing around here? I can’t even tell anymore.<\/p>\n

Instead of rationally running away, I ran toward the mounted skeleton and hacked it to pieces with my sword. Got a good arrow wound to the shoulder for my efforts, but the horse — still wearing a saddle, I might add — ran off.<\/p>\n

Made me consider whether this is where \u00a0all the saddles in the river had come from. I do pull up bones almost as often as saddles when I fish.<\/p>\n

ANYWAY. The horse escaped… and then later in the evening it came over to me to say hello.<\/p>\n

It let me pet it. It let me mount it. It let me ride it.<\/p>\n

It was a really weird end to the day.<\/p>\n

I might grab some rope and see if I can capture it tomorrow. A nice horse is not something to turn my back on, especially if it can outpace exploding monsters.<\/p>\n
